«Soy un director que no dibuja, pero para dirigir o indicar a la gente lo que me gustaría ver, dibujo algunos bocetos para que entiendan mis intenciones. Ahora lo hago menos. Me acerco a personas en las que realmente puedo confiar y con talento».

In 2015, ISIS captured Palmyra and demanded its head of antiquities reveal where the treasures were hidden.
He was 81 years old. He refused.
Khaled al-Asaad had spent over 50 years excavating and protecting Palmyra, the caravan city that once rivalled Rome in the Syrian desert.
He learned Aramaic to read its inscriptions. He raised his children among its ruins and named his daughter Zenobia, after its rebel queen.
Before the city fell, he helped evacuate hundreds of artefacts to safety. ISIS interrogated him for weeks to find them. But he gave them nothing.
They executed him in the square and left his body among the columns he had spent his life defending.
Archaeology is not a soft profession. Sometimes the people who guard the past die for it.
Colima spider-shaped vessel, Late Pre-Classic period, ca. 300 BC–300 AD, crafted from terracotta with a reddish-brown slip. Previously part of private collections in New York and Florida.

By far this is the most viral clip I've filmed in my career ending up on various tv shows, a gif on whatsapp (type in fish) and multiple memes though 99% of people aren't aware it was me who filmed this over 10 years ago now! I'm slightly worried this clip will be my legacy!

During discrimination training, #HeroRATs learn to identify the scent of TNT while ignoring other scents. By rewarding only correct indications, they learn to interact with the tea egg when they smell explosives, leading to indications when locating landmines in the field. #APOPO

Soooo, I'm back on my Star War nonsense - this time, returning to a 5 year old project to create a smaller Mon Calamari ship, thinking about frigate scale. Tons of work done since I picked this back up!
